Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

Nope they were actually competent and helped the Avengers take down AIM. The same story also had a team of heroes from China who helped out as well. [1]

The Aether?
Whatever your favourite work is, there is a Vocal Minority that considers it the Worst. Whatever. Ever!.Gamma radiation with food coloring in it that is going to be responsible for the creation of the Red Hulk?
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.An ordinary red light bulb that serves no function but to look cool?
I've got fanfics for Frozen, Spectacular Spider-Man, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro the Dragon.Mm, still like comic Ultron's light-up face better. But I understand why they would refrain from that for the same reason Marquee Alter Ego is a thing, since it's hard for that kind of face to be as expressive in the movie.
@Non-northamerican-continent-superheroes
I would love to see a on going comic book series (Black Pather ideally) dedicated to international 616. But there's not really a point unless the non american super teams are fundimentally different to the Avengers.
A Euro team is interesting just in the notion that heroes from completely independent countries would all share a super hero team. Possibly it's just a response to Doctor DOOM being on their door step, but the politics of the existence of such a thing would be interesting.
Either the heroes do not represent the governments of their countries and they're just the collection of the few super heroes in the continent with international travel convenient enough to justify teaming up. Or they are government backed in which case you;d imagine the countries would put a lot of effort into making sure they have a superhero representative on that team, nd then suddenly there would be all this politics and red tape between the members. Possibly they wouldn't even be allowed to know each other's identities.
Heck, both those ideas could co exist as two different euro super teams.
Honestly it's the second world countries superheroes I'm interested, the Cold War must have been really interesting when the countries had a very limited number of People Of Mass Destruction between them. And what happened to these super heroes after the Cold War ended.
And I'd like to know what's going on with super heroes in the middle east and Arab spring. How does terrorism work when any mutant with a potent power can say 'Fuck it, no more terrorists in my town.''
Terrorists in the 616-verse made suicide bombers out of Stark tech like old pieces of Iron Man armors(big plot point in The Five Nightmares
due to the guy supplying them being the son of the dead Iron Monger who was way more like MCU!Killian than the real 616!Killian).
